This looks to be the Armstrong family in 1861 Puslinch, Wellington, Canada West. The age of Robert is a little suspect here - should be more like 30  ???

Robert Armstrong aged 20 years born Scotland. Farmer.
Mrs Armstrong. aged 26 years born Scotland.
John Armstrong aged 7 years born Scotland.
William Armstrong aged 4 years born Ontario.
Mary Armstrong aged 1 years born Ontario.
